Antarctica: Difference between revisions

The 1st confirmed sighting of mainland antarcticaAntarctica was by a Russian expedition on the 27 of January 1820. Another sighting of Antarctica was made 3 days later by Irishman Edward Bransfield. These consecutive sightings officially confirmed the old theories of '''''« Terra Australis »'''''.

With the old Antarcticcolonial powers beingthat laid claim to Antarctica completely shattered and in ruins, the [[United States of America|United States]] searching in the rubbles to find the last democratic nations, and the new World Powers the [[Greater Germanic Reich]] and the [[Empire of Japan]] being distracted by the colonisation and management of their newly acquired colonies and puppets in [[World War II]], it was the [[Republic of Chile]] and the [[Argentine Republic]], some of the closest countries to the Antarctic Continent, which started the era we now know as '''''"The Scramble for Antarctica"'''.'' However, staking their claims as the only powers on the Continent rapidly led to a number of escalating skirmishes making both countries drain more and more resources into the Barren Land.

Soon enough, with the [[West Russian War]] putting a blow and distracting the Reich, the attempts at Germanisation and general colonisation of Neuschwabenland had failed, and the remaining occupants of the colony rapidly evacuated to the [[African Reichskommissariats]]. As a latchlast ditch effort to keep the colony stable and to protect its borders, Germany sent a small number of troops, advisors and generals, also comprising [[Schutzstaffel|SS]]-Waffen Troops.

Around the time of the [[SS Rebellion]], a small number of primarily SS Troops revolted in response after hearing the news of the Rebellion in the mainland Europe. They thenwould establishedestablish themselves at a small encampment in the North-Western part of Antarctica, naming it Begerheim. From what we now know of, the de-facto independent "colony" apparently called '''"[[Ahnenerbe Antarktis Gruppe]]"''' is gettingnow regularily supplied by the [[Burgundy|SS-Ordenstaat in Burgundy]] and is conducting a series of experimentationsexperiments to "Help the Mainland in its final goal". Not many know what occurs in the Burgundian section of Antarctica, but many observers suspect sinister intentions.

On the Japanese side, not much is known about it. Some say it is used for nuclear experimentationstest experiments, and others say it was just taken for the glory of the Empire, but what weobservers are sure of, is that the waters of Antarctica areis a prisedprized fishing location for the Japanese and their fishing fleets. In fact, almost every sight of activity in the [[Japanese Antarctic Sector]] are sightings of Japanese fishing vessels coming to make a quick buck.

Motivated by the defence of their legitimacy and by the fight against [[Ideologies|National Socialism]] and Japanese Imperialism, the [[OFN Antarctic Administration|OAA]] still pursue their goal as an example of unity, democracy and progress, even in the Southern Continent. With regular patrols of the OFN Sector by Australian, New Zealander and the US Navy, observers have noted that the OFN Antarctic Section is inhabitated by scientists and military personnel, observing the continent and protecting it against Japanese and German expansion.
